Biblioteca Nacional

A reflection on books and culture through testimonies and images from the Rio de Janeiro's National Library. In this work commissioned by the Ministry of Culture, the director forgoes voice-over in favor of a polyphonic discourse, combining more informative speeches from representatives of institutions with speeches by, for example, Sérgio Sant'Anna and Lygia Fagundes Telles, who express, in a different tone, their passion and vocation for books.

Director: Andrea Tonacci

Cast: Lygia Fagundes Telles, Sérgio Sant'Anna, Nélida Piñon
